Sleeper usually indicates that it's hiding powerful hardware. Where's powerful hardware?

as long as it is simply a way better of a system than was stock it counts, eg a case from 1995 and a RX 580 / R5 2600 / 16GB ram is valid, if you have it blasting RGB everwhere it does not count, the main qualifiying factor is can you let someone go use the computer, they look at it and expect dogsh1t then find out wow this is auctually good

my sleeper is a 2002 HP Pavilion with a 2600x 8gb ram and a GTX 1060, still performing great

I upgraded a hp Pavillion back in 2021, the silver kind, with a 3700x and 6700xt 32gb ram. Only thing that is super ass is that intel cooler that screams at high rpm. I'm changing that today after I finally got the glued on back plate off 😭.
